Your Gold Hair Hung Just Right On Your Shoulders

Your Gold Hair Hung Just Right On Your Shoulders

You enticed bright moonlight to shine brighter
upon your bare shoulders beaming so white.
I dreamed of love and held you much tighter
memory forever held in my sight.

Your gold hair hung just right on your shoulders
soft twinkles graced deeply your blue, blue eyes.
My racing heart screamed, " you be much bolder"
you have enough help from summer skies!

You felt my quickened and hotter breathing
with gentle touch you said, its alright.
This day, Fate decided you are leaving
I fight back welling tears with all my might.

Your passing, sent my lost world down crashing.
Our love, our time, my heart keeps rehashing.
